A Survey of Fungi at the University of Wisconsin-Waukesha Field Station Alan D. Parker Department of Biological Sciences University of Wisconsin-Waukesha Waukesha, Wisconsin 53188 Introduction The University of Wisconsin-Waukesha Field Station was founded in 1967 through the generous gift of a 98 acre farm by Ms. Gertrude Sherman. The facility is located approximately nine miles west of Waukesha on Highway 18, just south of the Waterville Road intersection. The site consists of rolling glacial deposits covered with old field vegetation, 20 acres of xeric oak woods, a small lake with marshlands and bog, and a cold water stream. Other communities are being estab- lished as a result of restoration work; among these are mesic prairie, oak opening, and stands of various conifers. A long-term study of higher fungi and Myxomycetes, primarily from the xeric oak woods, was started in 1978.

  • An Evolving Phylogenetically Based Taxonomy of Lichens and Allied Fungi

HODKINSON ABSTRACT. – A taxonomic scheme for lichens and allied fungi that synthesizes scientific knowledge from a variety of sources is presented. The system put forth here is intended both (1) to provide a skeletal outline of the lichens and allied fungi that can be used as a provisional filing and databasing scheme by lichen herbarium/data managers and (2) to announce the online presence of an official taxonomy that will define the scope of the newly formed International Committee for the Nomenclature of Lichens and Allied Fungi (ICNLAF). The online version of the taxonomy presented here will continue to evolve along with our understanding of the organisms. Additionally, the subfamily Fissurinoideae Rivas Plata, Lücking and Lumbsch is elevated to the rank of family as Fissurinaceae. KEYWORDS. – higher-level taxonomy, lichen-forming fungi, lichenized fungi, phylogeny INTRODUCTION Traditionally, lichen herbaria have been arranged alphabetically, a scheme that stands in stark contrast to the phylogenetic scheme used by nearly all vascular plant herbaria. The justification typically given for this practice is that lichen taxonomy is too unstable to establish a reasonable system of classification. However, recent leaps forward in our understanding of the higher-level classification of fungi, driven primarily by the NSF-funded Assembling the Fungal Tree of Life (AFToL) project (Lutzoni et al. 2004), have caused the taxonomy of lichen-forming and allied fungi to increase significantly in stability. This is especially true within the class Lecanoromycetes, the main group of lichen-forming fungi (Miadlikowska et al.

Mycosphere 10(1), 310–489, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/10/1/7 Abstract Leotiomycetes is regarded as the inoperculate class of discomycetes within the phylum Ascomycota. Taxa are mainly characterized by asci with a simple pore blueing in Melzer’s reagent, although some taxa have lost this character. The monophyly of this class has been verified in several recent molecular studies. However, circumscription of the orders, families and generic level delimitation are still unsettled. This paper provides a modified backbone tree for the class Leotiomycetes based on phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU, TEF, and RPB2 loci. In the phylogenetic analysis, Leotiomycetes separates into 19 clades, which can be recognized as orders and order-level clades.

  • 9B Taxonomy to Genus
    Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known. (Explanation paraphrased from "Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th Edition.") Principal authority for this taxonomy is the Dictionary of the Fungi and its online database, www.indexfungorum.org.

Mature Fraxinus excelsior showing Manual extensive shoot, twig, and branch dieback. CAPS Target: AHP Prioritized Epicormic shoot formation is also present. Photo Pest List – 2010-2016 credit: Andrin Gross. Background An extensive dieback of ash (Fig. 1) was observed from 1996 to 2006 in Lithuania and Poland. Trees were dying in all age classes, irrespective of site conditions and regeneration conditions. A fungus, described as a new species Chalara fraxinea, was isolated from shoots and some roots (Kowalski, 2006). The fungal pathogen varied from other species of Chalara by its small, short cylindrical conidia extruded in chains or in slimy droplets, morphological features of the phialophores, and by colony characteristics. Initial taxonomic studies concerning Chalara fraxinea established that its perfect state was the ascomycete Hymenoscyphus albidus (Gillet) W. Phillips, a fungus that has been known from Europe since 1851. Kowalski and Holdenrieder (2009b) provide a description and photographs of the teleomorphic state, Hymenoscyphus albidus. A molecular taxonomic study of Hymenoscyphus albidus indicated that there was significant evidence for the existence of two morphologically very similar taxa, H. albidus, and a new species, Hymenoscyphus pseudoalbidus (Queloz et al., 2010). Furthermore, studies suggested that H. albidus was likely a non-pathogenic species, whereas H. pseudoalbidus was the virulent species responsible for the current ash dieback epidemic in Europe (Queloz et al., 2010). A survey in Denmark showed that expansion of H.

  • Notes on Ascomycetes 11: Discomycetes
    ACTA BOT. ISL. 10: 31-36, 1990. Notes on Ascomycetes 11: Discomycetes Helgi Hallgrfmsson and Henrik F. G~tzsche Lagarasi 2, 700 Egilsstaoir, Iceland and Institut for Sporeplanter, 0ster-Farirnagsgade 2D, 1353 Copenhagen K, Denmark ABSTRACT: Sixteen species of, Helotiales and Pezizales (Discomy­ cetes) are recorded, whereof 9 species are new to the Icelandic flora: Lachnellula suecica. Ciboria polygoni, Peziza cf. cerea, Peziza fimeti. Peziza granulosa. Geopora sp.. Melastiza eha teri, Otide8 cf. alutacea and T8rzetta spurcata. HELOTIALES Helotiaceae ASCOCORYNE SARCOIDES (Jacq.) Groves & Wils. The species was reported by ROSTRUP (1903, p.313) under the name Coryne sarcoides (Jacq.) Tul., from Halssk6gur in N-Ice­ land, based on a specimen collected by 6lafur Daviosson. It has been found many times in the Public Park in Akureyri (AMNH 199, 9958), growing on stumps of different trees, mainly Betula and Sorbus spp., also in Arnarh6ll near Akureyri, in a garden. In SW-Iceland it has been found by Eirikur Jensson in Fossvogur 1988, and in Vifilsstaoahlio near Hafnarfjorour 1978. In the East it has been collected in the forests of Egilsstaoir and Hallormsstaour in 1987-1988 (AMNH 11642, 11856). The growing season is from late August to October. Since the species is rarely found in the ascus-state, it can­ not be ascertained whether A. cylichnum might also be present in the material or not. Hyaloscyphaceae HYMENOSCYPHUS cf. CALYCULUS (Sow.) Phill. The species was reported by ROSTRUP (1903, p. 315) as Phialea virgultorum (Vahl.) Sacc., from Halssk6gur and Horgar- 32 ACTA BOTANICA ISLANDICA NO. 10 dalur, N. -Iceland, collected by 6lafur Daviosson on branches of Betula pubescens and Salix lanata.
